Wonder Cream!I started using Erno Laszlo &amp; Active Phelityl Cream when I was a flight attendant and 25 years old. At that time there were fewer products in the line and Active Phelityl Cream was sold as their eye cream (THE eye cream!), neck cream and also used for burns and chapped lips, etc. I was immediately hooked. When I worked international flights, I often felt I might glow in the dark with all the Active Phelityl Cream I kept smearing under my eyes and on my lips! I still use it as my main eye treatment. I am 64 now and hardly have any wrinkles. I have been faithful to Erno Laszlo and really think this is your best kept secret. Please don't ever stop carrying it.

Active phelityl creamI'm a skin care junkie and have used MANY different brands and products but this one is a keeper and it's reasonably priced. And, a little goes a long way! This cream is perfect for all seasons but particularly when it's cold or cool outside. Got a sore nose from blowing it if you have a cold or your cheeks are feeling tender from cold weather? Active Phelityl cream will sooth and moisturizer them quickly like nothing else. When it's really cold I'll put a tiny bit on my cheeks before applying my daytime moisturizer and makeup. My skin looks so healthy and beautiful . I can't say enough! I really hope that Erno keeps this around forever!!

The Perfect Cream!This "Active Phelityl Cream" is perhaps the most versatile cream on the market today! From the face to the elbows, feet, lips, eyes, hands and cuticles; it calms, heals and dramatically moisturizes everything it comes into contact with. The scent is divine and when used under the "Heavy Controlling Lotion/Oil Control Night Treatment" (as Dr. Laszlo intended) the results are incredible! *I wish this cream was available in larger jars and also in portable tubes. I had an 8 oz jar from Saks years ago that I used to dispense into small pots and keep in various locations for easy access! It's that good!

Decent. Repeat customerWill I stop buying this? NO. I really love the texture and the way it absorbs while leaving behind a moisture layer. However:
Part of the charm was knowing Marilyn Monroe wore this and raved about it, but then I read the formula was later changed after her death. I bought it anyway and liked it enough that this my third purchase. But now again change comes in the form of cheap plastic packaging. Further belittling the Erno Laszlo legacy from glamorous retro Hollywood, to average blandness, the heavy glass container is replaced by white plastic.
Maybe the price should be lowered to match the lowered quality?

Acive PhelitylI am disappointed in the fact you stopped making Acive Phelityl.I purchased most of the things that Marilyn Monroe used on her face and now I can\'t get this product anymore and a lot of people that used to use it are very disappointed as well. If Erno Laszlo formulated that product that way it must have been great or Marilyn would not have used it and now I will never know. On top of that I cant find the Duo phase loose powder anywhere either. These seemed to be excellent products. Please bring them back as I\'m sure many of your customers would be very appreciative as well as I.

An EL classic!You’ve got to love the EL classics. I have used this product for years. I love the way it makes my skin feel upon application at night and then waking up to soft, plump skin in the morning. I have been a Laszlo girl for 45 years. I was just starting out in my career the first time I bought Active Phelityl Cream. Money was tight so it was a really big splurge back then. It was a wise investment at age 23 and it has saved me thousands of dollars in plastic surgery, fillers, botox and all of the other cosmetic procedures. Thanks to Erno L. I’ve had no work done unless you consider splashing water 60 times a day on your face as work. I love the versatility of this product and will continue to buy it forever.

ExcellentI use this for face and throat day and night. I pat a little around the eyes and on upper lip, even on my lips. My lipstick glides on and feels more moisturizing. The left over i rub into my fingernails. Non greasy, gives a glow to skin. No breakouts and smells great! I love this product so much. I recently received the firmarine for day and night but for winter i still prefer the active phelityl cream. My routine is phelityl pre cleansing oil, sea mud cleansing bar, light controlling lotion, hydra therapy refresh infusion and this cream. May seem heavy at first but soaks in. in the evening i do the same but use timeless serum.

Impressed!I am in love with how amazing this moisturizer feels on my face. Active Phelityl Night Cream is lightweight and not greasy at all. It feels amazing and silky smooth as you apply it. By the next morning I could feel a different is the texture of my skin. It felt balanced, plumper, and even had a glow. I cannot get enough of it, I love how it really makes my skin feel so soft and look hydrated and I have super dry skin right now and this has provided me some relief. I can't express how amazing this is and I definitely recommend it. This cream is well worth the money and jar will last you a long time, a little goes a long way! I received this product for free for reviewing purposes from Influenster.

I usually go for the firming products, but I love the way the two white lotions make my face feel and look. I purchased the Firmarine lotion and cream. Can they be
layered, say first the Firmarine lotion and then another lotion??

Asked by: Maria V.

There is not much benefit to using two moisturizers, as moisturizers are considered a final layer for a skincare routine, and using multiple moisturizers can be too heavy for skin. I would recommend choosing your favorite, or alternately, using one in the morning and the other in the evening.
You could also use the Firmarine Serum, and then use a moisturizer with that, as those two products are meant to be layered.

I have a jar of Hydra-Therapy Bodyskin Cream and love it. &nbsp;I would like to know the name of the Lazio product that took its place. My jar is 8 oz.

Active phelityl cream is the replacement. It&nbsp;leaves your skin soft and silky. It is especially useful in cold weather.

This cream feels unpleasantly greasy. It leaves a greasy film after applying it on my face. I wonder if this is normal? Did I use it wrong?

Asked by: ChelseaG

I already answered this question but forgot to tell you this cream should be used every night after washing your face under the eyes, on your lips and above the upper lip and on the neck. &nbsp;Leave for 5 minutes and then remove what remains with a tissue. &nbsp;If you have lines on your neck, they WILL disappear.

I used this cream a few years ago.
The cream worked well on my skin but I stopped using it because of the very strong fragrance. Does it still have a strong fragrance?

Asked by: Chloe36

I&rsquo;m not sure when they changed the formula in my opinion it&rsquo;s has a very light smell. Not heavily fragranced at all. I do love the texture! Hope this helps!&nbsp;

Is this the ORIGINAL night cream I would have bought in the 60&rsquo;s? &nbsp;With a yellow hue snd very greasy? &nbsp;If so, this is the cream I want.&nbsp;

Asked by: Mussy

Yes, this is the original Active Phelityl Cream, with a slight yellow color, and the consistency similar to Vaseline. It is great for severely dry skin.

What is the difference between&nbsp;Phelityl and active&nbsp;Phelityl ?

Asked by: Linnmn

i have only used ACTIVE Phelityl(since 1970) , as it was part of my original program, which has now been largely dismantled by successive new owners of the product line. &nbsp;my skin is suffering from the loss of most of my products.

Active Phelityl Cream

Does Erno Lazlo have the phelityl lotion available without the sun screen? I loved the texture of the lotion before the sunscreen was added. Is the Phelityl Cream a good substitute?
